The Points Award System

Two kinds of points are given: Saga Points and Card Points.

Saga Points are used to obtain travel, accommodation or car rental awards.

The Saga Cards

Saga Blue card is sent to members after their first Icelandair flight activity has been registered to their Saga Club account. Saga Club members who earn 40,000 Card Points within a 12 month period are upgraded to Saga Silver.

Saga Silver members must earn 30,000 Card Points within a 12 month period for membership to be renewed. Saga Silver members who earn 80,000 Card Points within a 12 month period are automatically upgraded to Saga Gold.

Saga Gold members must earn 70,000 Card Points within a 12 month period for membership to be renewed.

Name change requests cannot be processed over the phone. A copy of supporting legal documentation (e.g., court order) must be submitted by fax/mail and will be required for any name change requests.

Earning Points

All Icelandair scheduled flights give both Saga Points and Card Points. The member who flies with Icelandair earns the points regardless who pays for the ticket. Only tickets indicating a published fare give points. In the case of an upgrade, points are given based on the booked and paid class, not the upgraded class.

Points are given for completed travel. No points are given for tickets that are purchased but not used. Icelandair may add service partners to the program. Services of partners specified in the current points table give Saga Points, but not Card Points.

Saga Points are not inheritable and are not transferable in the event of a member's death. However one legal heir may have the Saga Points transferred to his/her account if certain conditions are fulfilled. A copy of supporting legal documentation must be submitted by mail for Icelandair's review and will be required for any such transaction.

The documents must contain the following:

The frequent flyer number of both members (the deceased and the receiving member)

Confirmation by appropriate government authority which enlists of all legal heirs

Signed approval of other legal heirs
